Hey all, i just wanted to say that i love my e6600, it clocks like a true champ and its value is unbeatable. That said, when the hell is intel going to come out with a native dual core processor? Or a native 4 core processor? Yes, the performance is good in c2d, but would be really special if it was native. If it were native and had a memory controller on it you would see MAJOR improvements across the board. Word has it that the processors after the new 45nm will have there own memory controller, but i wonder if itll be native or just 2 cores "bolted" on a chip and called dual core. I can understand 4 core chips being 2 dual cores on a chip, but i really thought after the pentium Ds that they would be native dual cores. AMD is coming out with native 4 core processors and supposedly outperform intels 4 core processors by 40%!! Heres a qoute for ya, “We expect across a wide variety of workloads for Barcelona to outperform Clovertown by 40%." http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/video/display/20070126134038.html
Just a thought, i love the turn around Intels made, but i really whant a native dual core solution, and a native 4 core solution would be amazing. As always, i have no brand loyalty and will go where the performance is.
